Celebrating My Little Man: Highlights From My Baby Shower!

It’s hard to believe that my son was born just twelve days ago and my baby shower was only thirteen days ago! With my son’s unexpected early arrival, I’ve got my birth story and baby shower blog posts flipped. Surrounded by family and friends, I had a wonderful planned shower (in addition to my surprise shower) with a Little Man baby shower theme. Here are my baby shower photos and highlighted moments of the day!

I Mustache You... How Do We Look?

My little man baby shower was thrown by so many loving friends and family, including my friend Nicole!

Showered with Generosity

As I walked into Nicole’s house, I was in awe of all the sweet decorations and the huge pile of gifts!

Mustache Baby Shower Balloons

The little touches of macho mustaches made me smile; what made me chuckle was noticing that someone (who I promised would remain nameless) put the mustache decals on the balloons upside-down!

Every drink was made sweeter with these adorable clip-on mustache straws.

Rocket Ship Shower Cake!

My sister made me a stunning custom cake – from scratch no less! – to match our retro outer space nursery theme. She sculpted the rocket ship out of fondant and even airbrushed the cityscapes along the bottom!

Me & My Sister

My sister Jasmine has taught me so many great things already about what it means to be a great mom.

Baby's First Blanket

I was in love with this delicately soft and beautifully knitted blanket from Nicole’s mother.
